Changing Landscapes and Persistent Places is a study of the cultural landscape on the Bjäre peninsula in northwest Skåne. The many Bronze Age remains that give the landscape its distinctive character are the starting point for an attempt to increase our understanding of the historical depth of today’s landscape. The two perspectives of “landscape” and “places” carry the discussion forward, almost
Popular Abstract in Swedish Cystisk fibros (CF) är en ärftlig sjukdom som orsakas av en defekt jonkanal. Denna defekt ger upphov till en onormal saltbalans i kroppen och följderna blir många. I lungorna och magtarmkanalen produceras ett väldigt segt slem vilket täpper till luftvägarna och medför andningssvårigheter. De slemfyllda lungorna klarar inte av att transportera upp slemmet och istället stCystic fibrosis is an inherited disease, caused by mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene. The gene codes for a protein that serve as chloride channel. In cystic fibrosis, this protein is lacking or has a defect function resulting in a thick and sticky mucus of the airways. The altered airway environment promotes mucus and growth of pathogenic bacteria. A common
BOOK SYNOPSIS: Throughout the industrialised world trade unionists are reforming their organisations as part of a strategy to adjust to new labour market, economic and political circumstances. This volume examines the role of merger activity in this process of reform. The book identifies the pattern of merger activity, the factors that promote its development and its impact on union structure and
Popular Abstract in Swedish Intresset för förnybara bränslen har ökat stadigt under de senaste åren. Att byta ut fossila mot förnybara bränslen kan minska utsläppen av växthusgaser till atmosfären och därmed minska klimatpåverkan av dessa men även minska vårt beroende av olja. Biobränslen som t.ex. etanol, biodiesel eller biogas, räknas till förnybara bränslen eftersom de inte bidrar till en ackumReplacing fossil fuels by biofuels such as ethanol is considered a promising alternative to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and mitigate climate change. Biofuels produced from lignocellulosic biomass, so-called second generation biofuels, result in decreased GHG emissions and limit competition with food and animal feed production. Interest in producing ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass ha
Background The Project on Research and Intervention in Monotonous work (PRIM) studied Danish workers for 3-4years to determine the effects of monotonous work. The present study is a subset of that cohort and compares prevalence and incidence differences of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) between workers with highly repetitive work tasks and workers with varied work tasks. Methods The baseline study i
Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy and drug survival of anti-tumour necrosis factor (anti-TNF) therapy in non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA) patients treated in clinical practice in Southern Sweden. Method: In this cohort study we prospectively included 112 patients with nr-axSpA and high disease activity as well as inadequate response or intolerance to non-steroidal anti-inflam
Rotational coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS) in fuel-rich hydrocarbon flames, with a large content of hydrogen in the product gases (similar to 20%), has in previous work shown that evaluated temperatures are raised several tens of Kelvin by taking newly derived N-2-H-2 Raman line widths into account. To validate these results, in this work calibrated temperature measurements at aroun
This work is underlain by broad-based expectations that policy interventions such as EU 2020 goals for renewable energy will continue to drive increased international trade in biomass for energy. This work focuses on where and how large volumes of biomass for bioenergy may be brought to the market in the short to medium term and sought insights in the following areas: • the manner in which demand
Objectives This study sought to study the second-generation everolimus-eluting stent (EES) as compared with first-generation sirolimus-eluting (SES) and paclitaxel-eluting stents (PES) in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. Background There are limited data available comparing clinical outcomes in this setting with EES and SES, whereas studies comparing EES with PES are not powered for low-frequency
In the work presented in the thesis laser diagnostics was employed primarily in the investigation of engines, but was also used to study soot in flames. Quantitative measurements were performed for visualizing both in-cylinder soot formation and DME sprays in a combustion vessel. The DME sprays inside a diesel truck engine were also qualitatively investigated. The combustion process in the HCCI en
The principal fate during litter decomposition and mineralization is rather well established only for a limited number of elements, mainly essential plant nutrients and a few potentially very toxic metals. Elements which occupy the majority of the positions in the periodical system seems almost unknown in this context. The objectives were, therefore to assess differences in the behavior of 58 mine
Lyme borreliosis (LB) is the most common vector-borne disease in the northern hemisphere, and southern Sweden is a highly endemic area. In over 70% of the cases, LB is represented by the non-disseminated cutaneous form erythema migrans (EM). This thesis has its focus on EM from a primary health care perspective in southern Sweden, including aspects on epidemiology, the clinical picture, gender dif
Protein C inhibitor (PCI) and antithrombin (AT) are serine protease inhibitors (serpins) that are involved in the regulation of coagulation. Like other inhibitory serpins, PCI and AT adopt different structural conformations that are related to their functions. The cleaved, inactive form is a result of cleavage by a protease, and the latent form, which is also inactive, can arise due to a mutation
In 1990, a joint Nordic-Russian project was initiated in order to make independent estimations of the effective dose to selected groups of inhabitants in a highly contaminated area around the city of Novozybkov In the western Bryansk region of Russia. The inhabitants were living in six villages with initial contamination levels of Cs-137 between 0.9 and 2.7 MBq m(-2). Some villages had been decont
Poverty and to fight poverty is certainly on top of the EU agenda and especially in the wake of the economic and financial crisis that has struck many European Member States. Poverty is a central element of the newly initiated EU2020 strategy and the EU´s ambition is to seek to lift at least 20 Million people out of poverty and social exclusion to the year 2020. This report has addressed the follo
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vi är under ständig attack från mikroorganismer som vill leva på oss och i oss. Vissa av dessa är vanligtvis nyttiga medan andra är sjukdomsframkallande. Kroppens försvar mot invaderande organismer består av många delar. Ytterst sitter huden som en mekanisk barriär, vi har slem och epitelceller i luftvägar och magtarmkanal samt skyddande ämnen i exempelvis tårvätska. I Transplantation antigens encoded in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) bind peptides and present them to T cells. We showed that mouse T cells expressing transgenic human CD8 can recognise human MHC class I. Expression on mature T cells is sufficient for activation in a mixed lymphocyte culture but expression both on thymocytes and mature T cells is necessary for peptide specific MHC restr
Popular Abstract in Swedish Aktie- och fondsparandet bland allmänheten har ökat dramatiskt i Sverige under 1990-talet, och allt fler företag har valt börsintroducering som finansieringsform. På så sätt har frågor som rör värdepappersmarknaden fått en ökad och mer allmän relevans, inte minst när det gäller regleringen av vad som är tillåtet och otillåtet att göra på marknaden. Både från statligt håIn this dissertation the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority's (FSA) investigation of suspected insider trading offences is examined and analysed. The aim of the study is to describe FSA's investigative activity in insider cases during the 1990?s, a period of both increased activity on the Swedish stock market as well as changed regulation. The study places the investigation of insider offence
Within the context of understanding the opening up of the People’s Republic of China and the city of Shanghai, the aim of the study is to explore ‘space’ in Chinese Communist Party rhetoric, Shanghai spatial planning discourse and personal intercultural engagements. By the term ‘space’, the author refers to an understanding of societal production that integrates space as part of the analysis, taki
